The evolution of your work, as much in the quality and so expressive, is visible for who folloies you closer like me. The easiness that has to transmit a feeling through the image is strong and contagiate us, without talk about the devotion and the craze of distinguished perfection, creating details that lead our soul for a peace and serenity. To create a digital art is not only to put together some photos and details of program, but to use its state of spirit to transmit a real dream; this is not something that any one makes, you need to have "talent" of the art in your life and the power of the creation without attacking or influencing. The romantism and joy in your life become more easy to manipulate the images, and your works have a tender style of being presented the public. To look at a work of your is lovely and the amount of harmonic details in makes them to be hours appreciating the beauty that shares with all of us. As its collaborator in some photos I can feel the passion that you have with the art, and as your husband I feel myself very proud of being able to be present in all the moments of your evolution, seeing your persistence to get the perfection. I love you my sweetie heart.

What I love so much in the Mel´s works is the capacity to put together technic reporting us in a world of dream and fantasy. where we can be what to want, fairies, angels or any elementary being. In my opinion, a complete artist. I am very inspired in your works of wonderful taste and creativity!

Sweet Melly it's been a long time since we met! Very long and sweet and may it go on :) We've been up and down a few roads together arm in arm, and we carried on together despite the "little" people - and we don't forget to smile and we continue to grow - that's what the Aquarius girls are made of - made of a little bit of magic. Your photos contain all that magic as you create them with a sprinkle of your little magic creative wand. May your magic wand never lose light but only glow a little stronger and brighter. Your creations remind us to never forget the dreams and fantasies - cos they are our motors. To a very creative and beautiful lady inside and out... Cherie Anne is sending a big kiss and many hugs :) xoxo

Everything that comes from Mel is talent! This artist is able to use references and turn them into works of magic, inspiring and fresh, and so real that will make us look at in awe and keep wishing for more. Her gallery is allways and never the same, meaning that her art is unique and has a very personal style but the same time she is able to add something new and beautiful to each piece. It´s allways a pleasure to be part of your arts! Love you Mel! ;)

There are artists and there are artists with a vision. Mel is an artist with a vision. Her vision is one which paints the world in a positive and mythological way, it is fantasy, magic, angels and mermaids all wrapped up into one. Most of all her art transports the viewer to another realm one where everything is beautiful and heartfelt. She uses her computer to create her art and wields her tool with a finesse that one can only compare to a magician. The beauty of her work is her magic, her skill on the computer and her mind which makes it possible … the viewers privilege is in sharing. A toast to the lady…she is as beautiful as her art. Cheers, Gerhardt

Mel I love your work, the creations you have done with my simple images is just beautiful and as a photographer and an artis that also do this type of photo-montage, I can only say that you are a lot more creative than me... Keep it up and hope that some day I can come to Brazil and do some of this work together with you. Hugs and kisses to you

Mel - your art is a reminder to me that the creative process never ends:
A photo feeds into a completed artwork, with a completely different yet
complimentary vision. As a photographer, I'm used to thinking that it's
all said and done when I release the shutter of my camera -- but when I
see the work you do, I realize that, sometimes, the photograph is just the
beginning. I love what you do - don't stop!

I looked at all of your images on Deviant Art. They are very impressive. You have become a great artist and I am glad to know you. I particularly like God's Gift, Moonscurse, Old Times Old Dreams, and I Can't Live. Very powerful images with impact. They leave the viewer thinking about the idea and the image itself. Very thought-provoking work. I do not know how to respond on the site. It is not very easy to navigate. I have had many people ask me to look at their art there, but could never find it. The site seems to force you to look at what they want you to see, instead of letting you browse on your own. I need to get back on PhotoPoints. Great images there that have made me reconsider the way I take photos.

Dear Mel I love your art. I visited your site and I always enjoy your art. Thank you so much for making some of your art of me. You are most talented. Love and success to you always

Dear Mel: I made a review of the images on the site and love them. I have always been a fan of your work, as you well know, especially your female figurative work. I would love to see it all as a show on walls. I am sure it will be beautiful. I still wish I could talk you into doing more B&W work. I was just in Oaxaca Mexico with Kim Weston doing a workshop dedicated to his grandfather Edward, it was a great time and I think I got some good work. I am enclosing a piece with this letter. It was done at The Alvarez Bravo Center. Again, the images on your site are wonderful and could only have been done by you. - All my love.

Mel, your work is easy, so easy to resume: ART, PURE ART. Following you for a long time, I perceive the evolution of the creativity, joined sensitivity and technique in a rare perception in catching images and transforming them. I see some photos used for you that, by itself, already they are a work of art but you improve this art for our delight and admiration. Thanks to share with us its imagination. A great kiss of this fan.

Hi, Mel! I was looking in your images, that are each time more impressive, touching us therefore have an absolutely fantastic beauty and sensitivity! A big kiss for you and, please, continue enchanting us!

Scarlet - Model - Australia
I have been modeling for many years and have had the privilege to work with many artists in many mediums. Mel is special and special for me because she expresses in her heart my deepest wishes as a woman. I want to feel pretty, and I want to be an angel or another romantic interpretation. Throughout time photographers portray women as angels but until photo art was possible they only looked like they could not fly…or mermaids that could not swim. Mel’s mythological fantasy brings all the magic of the fables to life. For me Mel expresses the inner desire of femininity, to be beautiful, a vision for all to behold. Thanks Mel for expressing the inner thoughts in a way that I have never seen another do. Hugs, Scarlet

It is always a pleasure and an honor to be a part of Mel's work. Her images have the sort of innocence and gentle beauty you might find in a book of fairy tales. She wants to bring magic to the world and does so with radiant colors, deep shadows and a sense of mystery. Her work is a glimpse into other realms.

TGlow - Photographer - Brazil
It´s really difficult to write about the Mel´s works without falling directly in compliment: Fantastic! I have followed your works since the beginning of your journey, always developing, creating! Your refined technique, sensitivity and good taste are elements gifts in all your works. I cannot also leave to comment that it is a difficult way... of composing images from fragments and transform them into a work of art... this she makes with naturalness! Congratulations for showing to the world all its art!

Sorry about the translation!
